Start up and Shut down manual for the OMX system MPI-LMF H1

Contents

General notes

Please ask LMF for training. See section 3.3 of OMX manual at the system

  • The manual explains the full power on and off procedures, but might be out of date.
  • On this Wiki page is written the normal user power on/off procedures
    • Normal users do not fully power off and on the system
    • Certain components are usually left on for stability reasons: galvos, liquid coolers, camera and OMXIC computers etc.

Normal User System Turn ON

  1. Open the doors of the laser unit to see what is already on.
  2. Make sure all computers are on and booted up, and logged in.
    1. 4x camera computers plus the OMXIC computer in the laser unit
    2. Both the OMX master and the Linux reconstruction workstation computers.
  3. Power ON the OMX hardware control and laser systems in the laser unit:
    1. Nanomotion Chassis - right side
    2. OMX Instrument Controller Chassis - right side
      1. make sure the despeckle unit has power (green light next to the switch number 1 - it should make a noise and vibrate the laser unit)
    3. Peizo z controller (bottom left of the unit - small power switch on front of controller - bottom right)
  4. Power on the 2 laser control modules on the bottom left
    1. Main power of both boxes, then also turn on each laser power under the label for each laser line.
    2. Turn the interlock key to position 1 - so lader light is allowed out of the system
  5. The light on the laser unit door and the OMX enclosure should be green (means powered on but not active yet.)
  6. Make sure you are logged into the OMX master windows computer (the left one)
  7. Start the OMX software
  8. restart the OMX hardware
    1. menu item: Hardware - Hardware
    2. Click the restart hardware" button - wait for a couple of min.
    3. when its done there should be no red text at the hardware and camera status displays.
      1. and the camera icon should not be greyes out - and you should be able to snap and image from one or all the cameras.

Normal user System Turn OFF

  1. Close the OMX software and shut down the OMX master windows and the SI reconstruction Linux computers
  2. Turn off lasers
    1. Turn the laser interlock key to 0
    2. Switch of the individual power to each of the lasers
    3. Switch off the 2 power buttons of the laser units.
  3. Switch off the OMX hardware chassis
    1. Turn off the Nanomotion chassis
    2. and also turn off the OMX Instrument Controller chassis.
  4. Power off the z peizo controller.

In the laser unit - You can leave the 4 camera computers on, and the OMXIC computer on. You can leave on the 4 galvo controller boxes (which you shouldn't have needed to turn on as a normal user) The GB ethernet switch is left powered in and the green lights on it will stay on. Leave the 2 Koolance liquid coolers on

Trouble shooting

Are the 4 galvo controllers powered on? No SI illumination after startup? Just run a dumm SI experiment, then all will be well - this is a known bug.

Full System Power ON

Full System Power OFF

Recent changes

New as of Blaze upgrade:

  • 2x 2 galvo control boxes. 2 on OMX enclosure, 2 on laser cabinet.
